mr. happy

people who say suicide is a selfish act
should try a lifetime
of putting your head on your pillow
begging god to let you die in your sleep
so you don’t have to face another day of pain

what is selfish is expecting someone
to live out their lives in agony
so that you may rest easier at night

it is a final act of desperation
to end unendurable suffering

yes the aftermath is hell

but hell is every sunrise
when you have depression

what solace have i to offer?

once generated
sound continues to travel
infinitely
which means
somewhere in the universe
at this very moment
robin williams is telling a dick joke
and we
are all laughing through tears
